Utilize an eyedropper to add a drop of the solution on a concealed area. Allow the solution to penetrate the fabric for 1-2 minutes. In case the silk fades or discolors, bring the garment to a dry cleaning service.\u00a0<\/li><li>Place a small amount of the solution on the stained area with a clean sponge or dropper. Tap the solution carefully into the stain using your fingertips or a soft brush. Allow it to penetrate the stain for 5-10 minutes.<\/li><li>Wash the garment based on the fabric care label. If safe, wash the garment in lukewarm water with a few drops of baby shampoo or a detergent specially made for hand-washable garments. When it comes to silk, it must be agitated carefully.<\/li><li>Rinse the silk saree thoroughly in water.\u00a0<\/li><li>Check the garment and repeat the process if the stain lingers. If the stain is completely removed, wrap the garment loosely in a soft white towel and lay it flat to dry or hang on a padded hanger.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>[crp]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_care_for_a_silk_saree\"><\/span><strong>How to care for a silk saree<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Washing. When regularly cleaning your silk saree, do not use soap at the start. Initially soak it in saltwater for 20-30 minutes and rinse with cold water. Wash it a few times in plain water and mild detergent quickly. Remember to avoid scrubbing with a brush or bundling it up. After washing, carefully squeeze out the excess water and hang it on the clothesline to dry, ideally under direct sunlight.<\/li><li>Stain removal. Lime juice is the ideal option when dealing with stains. Simply add a few drops of lime juice to water to get rid of stains on your silk saree. Make sure that you will rinse it immediately since lime water tends to fade the color.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Ironing. The suitable time to iron your silk saree is when it is slightly moist. If not, dampen it using a spray bottle. Set the iron on medium to low heat. Fold the saree into half and iron every side as you continue to fold it into half further on.<\/li><li>Storage. When storing your silk saree, it should be neatly stacked up in the closet or a box away from light and dust. Avoid storing in a plastic pouch since the fabric cannot breathe. In case you do not use it regularly, take it out for some fresh air.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_dish_soap_remove_oil_stains_from_silk\"><\/span><strong>Does dish soap remove oil stains from silk?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Dish soap can be used to remove oil and grease stains, including those that have dried up.
